【解析】

試題分析：此篇完形填空的文章原型來源于一片叫作“The Blind Bus Passenger”的文章。講的是一個盲人乘客的故事。

1.1】D考查動詞。A. touch摸索，感知；B. grab搶先，搶占；C. count數(shù)數(shù);計算總數(shù);把…算入;重要；D. feel摸索，感知�？忌�要知道盲人是看不見的，所有的動作都是靠摸索的，其實這是常識問題，據(jù)此可知應該選擇“feel”(摸索，感知), 而不應該是“有目的”地去“touch”（觸碰）；

2.2】C考查名詞。A. weakness 弱點；B. sickness病；C. darkness黑暗；D. sadness傷心。盲人陷入到黑暗的世界，這種表達在中文里面我們也使用，所以明顯應該是“a world of darkness”；

3.3】B考查動詞。A. run跑；B. sink下沉；C. jump跳；D. step舉步，行走。單純考查詞匯，sink into hopeless, 描述人陷入到絕望之中，“sink”表示下沉，和人陷入絕望的狀態(tài)是符 合的。

4.4】B考查動詞。A. inspired鼓舞；B. determined 決定；C. honored尊敬；D. pleased使高興。be determined to do sth. 這是新概念二冊中的重點句型，下決心做某事，當然你也可以用 make up one’s mind to do sth.故選B。

5.5】A 考查動詞。A. return歸還，返回；B. adjust調整；C. honored尊敬；D. pleased使高興。人殘志不殘，她想回到工作之中去，作返回來講return 是一個不及物動詞，因為選D。

6.6】D 考查形容詞。A. tired 感到累；B. astonished感到驚訝；C. depressed感到沮喪；D. frightened感到害怕。句意：她過去習慣坐公共汽車，但是她現(xiàn)在太害怕而不敢單獨在這個城市四處走動。frightened表示恐懼，故選D。

7.7】A考查動詞。A. volunteered自愿去做；B. attempted企圖；C. continued繼續(xù)；D. struggled努力，掙扎。volunteer表示志愿去幫助Susan，現(xiàn)在很流行志愿者，所以大家不會對這個詞感到陌生。故選A。

8.8】C 考查狀語從句。A. when當---時候；B. as隨著---；C. until直到---為止；D. after在---之后。句意：Mark自愿每天早上和晚上和Susan一起乘公共汽車，直到她自已能單獨做這件事為止。故選C。until在這里是連詞，引導時間狀語從句。狀語從句是重點語法，大家要注意學習了

9.9】C考查動詞。A. drove 駕駛；B. directed指導；C. accompanied 陪伴；D. sent寄送。accompany表示“陪伴”，既然Mark是來幫助Susan的，顯然就來陪伴她的，故選C。

10.10】D考查名詞。A. feelings感覺；B. organs器官；C. skills技能；D. senses感覺，官能�？芍�盲人失去的是 “sight”實力，其它的sense（感覺）還是存在的，故選D。

11.11】B考查名詞。A. position位置；B. environment環(huán)境；C. status地位；D. role角色。 簡單的詞匯辨析題，盲人需要適應的是新的environment（環(huán)境），而不是新的position（位置）等到，故選B。

12.12】A考查介詞短語。A. on her own靠自己；B. in person親自；C. to her benefit為了自己的利益；D. on foot步行。on one’s own表示“靠某人自己”本文一直都是在表揚這位盲人的毅力和堅持，希望能夠靠自己來維持自己的正常生活。故選A。

13.13】D考查副詞。A. politely有禮貌地；B. calmly冷靜地；C. briefly簡短地；D. tightly緊緊地，堅固地，牢固地。試想，擁抱自己的丈夫，而且是在分別的時候，感慨萬千的時候，應該有的動作當然是 “tightly”（緊緊地），而不是其它的類似于politely（禮貌地），故選D。

14.14】B考查形容詞。A. opposite相反的；B. separate分開的；C. fixed固定的；D. lonely孤獨的，寂寞的。在接受了別人的幫助后，Susan終于要獨自一人登上旅程了。他們各自走各自的路， “separate”表示“分別的”，其實她的背后有很多默默支持她的人，顯然不是 “l(fā)onely”（孤獨的）這樣的詞。故選B。

15.15】D考查動詞短語。A. took charge of掌管；C. took place of代替；C. took advantage of利用；D. took hold of吸引。句意：每天都在完美的進行，一個瘋狂的興奮吸引了Susan。故選D。

16.16】A考查介詞短語。A. as usual像往常一樣；B. as a rule作為一條規(guī)則；C. as well 也；D. as a consequence因而，結果。as usual（像往常一樣），表示經(jīng)常發(fā)生的動作再次發(fā)生。故選A。

17.17】B 考查動詞。A. respect尊重；B. envy嫉妒；C. know 知道；D. support支持。envy（嫉妒，羨慕）仔細閱讀下面的文章，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)，司機是準備告訴Susan一個秘密。也就是要告訴她有很多人在默默地支持和關懷她。所以，根據(jù)上下文的理解，可以知道此刻司機是要表達一種羨慕嫉妒之情，也是對Susan的一種寬慰，故選B。

18.18】C考查疑問詞。A. what 什么；B. how怎樣；為什么；C. why ；D. who誰。句意：Susan好奇地問為什么。故選C。

19.19】A考查形容詞。A. past過去的；B. same 相同的；C. first 第一；D. next下一個。在過于的幾個星期中，英文應該是 “for the past week” “next”表示的是下周，還沒發(fā)生的事情是不可能用完成時的，而且 “for”+一段時間，是現(xiàn)在完成時的時間狀語標志，故選A。

20.20】C考查名詞。A. courage勇氣；B. will愿意;意志；C. sight視力；D. wisdom明智。sight表示“視力”。文中指的是，Susan雖然失去了視力，但是獲得了更多寶貴的東西。

考點：考查故事類閱讀。
